Homosexuality across cultures

Same-sex relationships and gender-variant people have existed across virtually all human societies, though different cultures have named, organized, and valued them in radically different ways. This historical and anthropological reality disrupts the myth that heterosexuality and binary gender are natural universals, revealing instead that sexual and gender systems are culturally constructed—and therefore changeable.
